Running with Scissors Lapband Am I too big to run? I realize watching me run will not be a pleasant sight but I'm wondering if I will hurt myself running. My BMI is 46 and I'm concerned about how my Lapband will reacting to being lurched around. Is there an ideal BMI or fitness level to start running? Yes, these are questions I will ask my doctor but I was just wondering what some other people's experiences are.

All it took was one mini carrot. Last night at dinner, I had a full feeling and decided to eat the last carrot on my plate. BIG MISTAKE. I've always been able to tell when I am about to throw up -- that metalic taste, excessive saliva. I immediately went to the restroom and knew I was about to throw up my entire dinner. And all that came up was a few bits of carrots and some spit. I thankfully know when to stop now but I am wondering if throwing up is a normal part of the process. My friend with lapband throws up every time she eats too fast. I'm only three weeks post op and have not had a fill yet but my concern is that I will feel miserable and feel like I need to throw up and won't be able to. I of course do not want to throw up but has this been part of your lapband journey?
